Home Assistant Cloud Hider

Custom Component for Home Assistant that hides "Home Assistant Cloud" from Home Assistant UI.

Background

Home assistant has a cloud component that gets loaded automatically if you use the default_config. In order to delete cloud from your setup you need to delete the defaul_config and add manually add all the configurations back into your own configuration.yaml. Also you need to manually update it when things change in Home Assistant.

This is an alternative to this process. It works by overriding the default component with a "dummy" one, thus eliminating it from the UI.

Installation

The component can be installed from HACS (use the Custom Repository option), or follow the below instructions to install manually.

1. Create a folder in your config directory (normally where your configuration.yaml file lives) named custom_components
2. Create a folder in your custom_components named cloud
3. Copy the 2 files (init.py, manifest.json) into the cloud folder
4. Restart Home Assistant
